FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to substituted pyrazoline compounds,methods for their preparation, medicaments comprising these compounds aswell as their use for the preparation of a medicament for the treatmentof humans and animals.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Cannabinoids are compounds, which are derived from the cannabis sativaplant which is commonly known as marijuana. The most active chemicalcompound of the naturally occurring cannabinoids is tetrahydrocannabinol(THC), particularly Δ⁹-THC.

These naturally occurring cannabinoids as well as their syntheticanalogues promote their physiological effects via binding to specificG-coupled receptors, the so-called cannabinoid-receptors.

At present, two distinct types of receptors that bind both the naturallyoccurring and synthetic cannabinoids have been identified and cloned.These receptors, which are designated CB₁ and CB₂ are involved in avariety of physiological or pathophysiological processes in humans andanimals, e. g. processes related to the central nervous system, immunesystem, cardiovascular system, endocrinous system, respiratory system,the gastrointestinal tract or to reproduction, as described for example,in Hollister, Pharm. Rev. 38, 1986, 1-20; Reny and Singha, Prog. Drug.Res., 36, 71-114, 1991; Consroe and Sandyk, in Marijuana/Cannabinoids,Neurobiology and Neurophysiology, 459, Murphy L. and Barthe A. Eds., CRCPress, 1992.

Therefore, compounds, which have a high binding affinity for thesecannabinoid receptors and which are suitable for modulating thesereceptors are useful in the prevention and/or treatment ofcannabinoid-receptor related disorders.

In particular, the CB₁-receptor is involved in many differentfood-intake related disorders such as bulimia or obesity, includingobesity associated with type II diabetes (non-insulin-dependentdiabetes) and thus, compounds suitable for regulating this receptor maybe used in the prophylaxis and/or treatment of these disorders.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Thus, it was an object of the present invention to provide novelcompounds for use as active substances in medicaments. In particular,these active substances should be suitable for the modulation ofcannabinoid receptors, more particularly for the modulation ofcannabinoid 1 (CB₁) receptors.

Said object was achieved by providing the substituted pyrazolinecompounds of general formula I given below, their stereoisomers,corresponding salts and corresponding solvates thereof.

It has been found that these compounds have a high affinity forcannabinoid receptors, particularly for the CB₁-receptor, and that theyact as modulators e. g. antagonists, inverse agonists or agonists onthese receptors. They are therefore suitable for the prophylaxis and/ortreatment of various disorders related to the central nervous system,the immune system, the cardiovascular system, the endocrinous system,the respiratory system, the gastrointestinal tract or reproduction inhumans and/or animals, preferably humans including infants, children andgrown-ups.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Thus, in one of its aspects the present invention relates to substitutedpyrazoline compounds of general formula I,

The compounds of general formula I given above may also act as prodrugs,i.e. they represent a drug precusor, which following administration to apatient releases a drug in vivo via some kind of chemical and/orphysiological process (e.g., a prodrug on being brought to aphysiological pH and/or through an enzyme action is converted to adesired drug form; see, e.g., R. B. Silverman, 19912, “The OrganicChemistry of Drug Design and Drug Action”, Academic Press, Chp. 8). Inparticular, the compounds of general formula I give rise to a compoundof general formula I, wherein R³ represents a —OH moiety, uponadministration to a patient.

Prodrugs can be used to alter the biodistribution (e.g., to allowcompounds which would not typically enter the reactive site of theprotease) or the pharmacokinetics for a particular compound. Forexample, a hydroxyl group, can be esterified, e.g., with a carboxylicacid group to yield an ester.

It has been found that the substituted pyrazoline compounds of generalformula I given above, stereoisomers thereof, N-oxides thereof,corresponding salts and corresponding solvates have a high affinity tocannabinoid receptors, particularly cannabinoid 1 (CB₁)-receptors, i,e.they are selective ligands for the (CB₁)-receptor and act as modulators,e.g. antagonists, inverse agonists or agonists, on these receptors. Inparticular, these pyrazoline compounds show little or no development oftolerance during treatment, particularly with respect to food intake,i.e. if the treatment is interrupted for a given period of time and thencontinued afterwards, the inventively used pyrazoline compounds willagain show the desired effect. After ending the treatment with thepyrazoline compounds, the positive influence on the body weight is foundto continue.

Furthermore, these substituted pyrazoline compounds show relatively weakHerg channel affinity, thus a low risk of prolongation of theQT-interval is to be expected for these compounds.

In summary, the inventively used substituted pyrazoline compounds aredistinguished by a broad spectrum of beneficial effects, while at thesame time showing relatively little undesired effects, i.e. effectswhich do not positively contribute to or even interfere with the wellbeing of the patient.

Dementia is a disease characterized by the progressive deterioration incognitive and social adaptive functions that can eventually interferewith the patient's ability to live independently. Dementia alsoconstitutes of impairment in short- and long-term memory plus additionalsymptoms, such as problems with abstract thinking, judgment, orpersonality. An estimated 18 million patients suffer from dementiaworldwide. The most common forms of dementia include Alzheimer's diseaseand vascular dementia. Other forms are frontotemporal dementia andPick's disease.

Dementia can also be of vascular origin. Vascular dementia(atherosclerotic cerebrovascular disease) is considered to be the secondmost common dementia of late life, affecting approximately 10-15% of allcases. AD and vascular dementia can exist in isolation or together(mixed dementia). In vascular dementia, atherosclerotic changes incerebral vessels can lead to reduced local blood flow that results inmultiple small strokes (multi-infarct dementia). Vascular dementia ispharmacologically treated by stroke prophylaxis, and by treatment of thecognitive deficit.

Alzheimer's disease (AD), the most common and important form ofdementia, is a neurodegenerative disorder that is characterized byprogressive impairment of cognitive functions, such as abstractreasoning and memory. Currently, an estimated 2 million people in theUnited States and 12 million worldwide are afflicted by this disease.Due to increasing life expectancy, it is predicted that there will beover 1 00 million AD patients worldwide by the year 2050 AD is one ofthe most prevalent illnesses in the elderly The majority of AD patientsare in their sixties or older. More than 5% of all persons over the ageof 70 have significant memory loss due to AD.

AD is mainly characterized through a gradual development offorgetfulness. In further advanced disease stages, other failures incerebral function become increasingly apparent. This includes impairmentof speech, writing, and arithmetic skills. Visiospacial orientation,such as parking the car, dressing properly, and giving and understandingdirections to a location, can become defective or impaired. In latestage disease, patients forget how to use common objects and tools whileretaining necessary motor power and co-ordination for these activities.

Schizophrenia is characterized by profound disruption in cognition andemotion, affecting the most fundamental human attributes; language,thought, perception, affect, and sense of self. Positive symptomsinclude psychotic manifestations, such as hearing internal voices orexperiencing other sensations not connected to an obvious source(hallucinations) and assigning unusual significance or meaning to normalevents or holding fixed false personal beliefs (delusions). Negativesymptoms are characterized by affective flattening and lack ofinitiative or goals (avolition), loss of usual interests or pleasures(anhedonia), disturbances of sleep and eating, dysphoric mood(depressed, anxious, irritable, or angry mood) and difficultyconcentrating or focusing attention.

Major depression is a multifaceted disorder characterized by primarilyby dysphoric mood and loss of interest or pleasure in activities thatwere once enjoyable. Other physical and psychological symptoms includeinability to concentrate, motor disturbances (psychomotor retardation oragitation), feelings of worthlessness, inappropriate guilt, thoughts ofsuicide, and disturbances in appetite and sleep.

Anxiety disorders are a group of syndromes that include generalizedanxiety disorder, panic disorder, phobias, obsessive-compulsivedisorder, and post traumatic stress disorder. Although each disorder hasits own distinct features, all share common symptoms of excessiveworrying, intense fears and dread, hypervigilance and/or somaticsymptoms, in the absence of a dangerous situation.

Normal sexual function requires, among others, the ability to achieveand maintain penile erection. Major anatomic structures of the penisthat arc involved in erectile function include the corpus cavernosum,corpus spinosum, and the tunica albuginea (a collagenous sheath thatsurrounds each corpus). Thecorpora are composed of a mass of smoothmuscle (trabecula) which contains a network of endothelial-lined vessels(lacunar spaces). Penile tumescence and erection is caused by relaxationof the arteries and corporal smooth muscles, while closing emissaryveins, leading to increased blood flow into the lacunar network. Centraland peripheral innervation contributes to regulation of the erectileresponse.

Erectile dysfunction (ED) may result from failure to initiate, fill, orstore adequate blood volume within the lacunar network of the penis.Depending on the underlying dysfunction, ED may be vasculogenic,neurogenic, endocrinologic, diabetic, psychogenic, ormedication-related.

ED affects 10-25% of middle-aged and elderly men, and has a profoundimpact on the well-being of affected men. It is currently treated usingPDE5 inhibitors such as vardenafil, tadalifil, and sildenafil.Intraurethral alpostadil (prostaglandin El) may be used in patients thatfail on oral agents. In addition, vacuum constriction devices (VCD) area well-established, noninvasive therapy.

Female sexual dysfunction (FSD) is highly prevalent, age-related, andprogressive. It affects 30 to 50% of women. FSD denotes a range ofmedical problems and is categorized according to disorders of (1)desire, (2) arousal, (3) orgasm and (4) sexual pain, and symptomsinclude diminished vaginal lubrication, pain and discomfort withintercourse, decreased arousal, and difficulty achieveing orgasm. On amolecular level, vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), nitic oxide (NO),and sex hormones such as estrogens and androgens have been suggested tobe important in female sexual function. Current treatment approachesinclude estrogen replacement therapy, methyl testosterone, PDE5inhibitors such as sildenafil, the NO-donor L-arginine, prostaglandinEl, phentolamine, and the dopamine agonists apomorphine.

Pharmacological Methods

I. In-Vitro Determination of Affinity to CBI/CB2-Receptors

a) The in-vitro determination of the affinity of the inventivesubstituted pyrazoline compounds to CB₁/CB₂-Rezeptors is carried out asdescribed in the publication of Ruth A. Ross, Heather C. Brockie et al.,“Agonist-inverse agonist characterization at CB₁ and CB₂ cannabinoidreceptors of L-759633, L759656 and AM630”, British Journal ofPharmacology, 126, 665-672, (1999), whereby the transfected human CB₁and CB₂ receptors of Receptor Biology, Inc. are used. The radioligandused for both receptors is [³H]-CP55940. The respective parts of thedescription is hereby incorporated by reference and forms part of thepresent disclosure.

b) Rat cerebellum CB1 binding Binding affinity to CB1 receptor wasevaluated according to a modification of the method described byGovaerts et al., Eur J Pharmac Sci 23, 233-243 (2004). The respectiveparts of the description is hereby incorporated by reference and formspart of the present disclosure

Briefly, cerebellum from male wistar rats (250-300 g) were carefullydissected on ice and homogenates were prepared with Potter-Helveheim ina cold 50 mM Tris-HCl solution containing 5 mM MgCl₂, 1 mM EDTA and 0.25M sucrose, pH 7.4. The suspension was centrifuged at 1,000×g for 5minutes. The supernatants were collected and centrifuged 50.000×g for 15minutes. The resulting pellets were then resuspended in Tris-HCl bufferwithout sucrose, homogenized and incubated for 15 min at 37° C. in anorbital shaker bath and centrifuged again at 50,000×g for 15 min.Pellets were weighted resuspended in Tris-HCl buffer without sucrose,homogenized with Ultraturrax at 13,500 rpm for 3×5 seconds and alicuotedin 0.9 ml volumes in Eppendorf tubes. Alicuotes were centrifuged at20,800×g for 5 minutes, supernatants discarded and pellets were frozenat −80° C. until use. Total protein concentration was determined usingthe Bio-Rad Lowry method based kit. Competitive binding experiments wereperformed in presence of 1 nM [³-H]-CP 55,940 in siliconized glass tubescontaining 100 μg protein/tube resuspended in 1 ml final volume of 50 mMTris-HCl, 5 mM MgCl₂, 1 mM EDTA, 0.5% (wlv) bovine serum albumin, pH7.4. Compounds were present at various concentrations and the nonspecific binding was determined in the presence of 10 μM HU-210. After 1hour incubation at 30° C., the suspension was rapidly filtered through0.5% PEI pre-treated GF/B fiber filters on a 96-well harvester andwashed 3 times with 3 ml ice-cold binding buffer without bovine serumalbumin. Radioactivity on filters was measured with Wallac Winspectral1414 counter by liquid scintillation in 6 ml Ecosdint H (NationalDiagnostics, U.K.). Assays were made in triplicates.

Binding data were analyzed by non-linear regression with the softwareGraphPad Prism Version 3.03.

II. In-Vivo Bioassay System for Determination of Cannabinoid Activity

Mouse Tetrad Model

Substances with affinity for cannabinoid receptors are known to producea wide range of pharmacological effects. It is also known thatintravenous administration of a substance with affinity for cannabinoidreceptors in mice produces analgesia, hypothermia, sedation andcatalepsy Individually, none of these effects can be considered as proofthat a tested substance has affinity for cannabinoid-receptors, sinceall of these effects are common for various classes of centrally activeagents. However, substances, which show all of these effects, i.e.substances that are active in this so-called tetrad model are consideredto have affinity for the cannabinoid receptors. It has further beenshown that cannabinoid receptor antagonists are highly effective inblocking the effects of a cannabinoid agonist in the mouse tetrad model.

The tetrad model is described, for example, in the publication of A. C.Howlett et al, International Union of Pharmacology XXVII. Classificationof Cannabinoid Receptors, Pharmacol Rev 54, 161-202, 2002 and David R.Compton et al., “In-vivo Characterization of a Specific CannabinoidReceptor Antagonist (SR141716A): Inhibition ofTetrahydroccannbinol-induced Responses and Apparent Agonist Activity”,J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 277, 2, 586-594, 1996. The corresponding partsof the description are hereby incorporated by reference.

Material and Methods

Male NMRI mice with a weight of 20-30 g (Harlan, Barcelona, Spain) areused in all of the following experiments.

Before testing in the behavioural procedures given below, mice areacclimatised to the experimental setting. Pre-treatment control valuesare determined for analgesia hot plate latency (in seconds), rectaltemperature, sedation and catalepsy.

In order to determine the agonistic activity of the substance to betested, the mice are injected intravenously with the substance to betested or the vehicle alone. 15 minutes after injection, latency in hotplate analgesia is measured.

Rectal temperature, sedation and catalepsy are measured 20 minutes afterinjection. In order to determine the antagonistic activity the identicalprocedure is used as for the determination of the agonistic effects, butwith the difference that the substance to be evaluated for itsantagonistic activity is injected 5 minutes before the intravenousinjection of 1,25 mg/kg Win-55,212 a known cannabinoid-receptor agonist.

Hot Plate Analgesia

The hot plate analgesia is determined according to the method describedin Woolfe D. et al. “The evaluation of analgesic action of pethidinehydrochloride (Demerol)”, J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther, 80, 300-307, 1944.The respective description is hereby incorporated by reference and formspart of the present disclosure.

The mice are placed on a hot plate (Harvard Analgesimeter) at 55±0.5° C.until they show a painful sensation by licking their paws or jumping andthe time for these sensations to occur is recorded. This reading isconsidered the basal value (B). The maximum time limit the mice areallowed to remain on the hot plate in absence of any painful response is40 seconds in order to prevent skin damage. This period is called thecut-off time (PC).

Fifteen minutes after the administration of the substance to be tested,the mice are again placed on the hot plate and the afore describedprocedure is repeated. This period is called the post-treatment reading(PT).

The degree of analgesia is calculated from the formula;% MPE of Analgesia=(PT−B)/(PC−B)×100

MPE=Maximum possible effect.

Determination of Sedation and Ataxia

Sedation and ataxia is determined according to the method described inDesmet L. K. C, et al, “Anticonvulsive properties of Cinarizine andFlunarizine in Rats and Mice”, Arzneim.-Forsch. (Frug Res) 25, 9, 1975.The respective description is hereby incorporated by reference and formspart of the present disclosure,

The chosen scoring system is

0: no ataxia;

1: doubtful;

2: obvious calmness and quiet;

3 pronounced ataxia;

prior to as well as after treatment.

The percentage of sedation is determined according to the formula:% of sedation arithmetic mean/3×100

Hypothermia:

Hypothermia is determined according to the method described in David R.Compton et al. “In-vivo Charecterization of a Specific CannabinoidReceptor Antagonist (SR141716A) Inhibition ofTetrahydrocannbinol-induced Responses and Apparent Agonist Activity”, J.Pharmacol Exp Ther. 277, 2, 586-594, 1996. The respective description ishereby incorporated by reference and forms part of the presentdisclosure.

The base-line rectal temperatures are determined with a thermometer(Yello Springs Instruments Co., Panlabs) and a thermistor probe insertedto 25 mm before the administration of the substance to be tested. Rectaltemperature is again measured 20 minutes after the administration of thesubstances to be tested. The temperature difference is calculated foreach animal, whereby differences of >2° C. are considered to representactivity,

Catalepsy:

Catalepsy is determined according to the method described in AlpermannH. G. et al. “Pharmacological effects of Hoe 249: A new potentialantidepressant”, Drugs Dev. Res. 25, 267-282, 1992. The respectivedescription is hereby incorporated by reference and forms part of thepresent disclosure.

The cataleptic effect of the substance to be tested is evaluatedaccording to the duration of catalepsy, whereby the animals are placedhead downwards with their kinlegs upon the top of the wooden block.

The chosen scoring system is:

Catalepsy for;

more than 60 seconds=6; 50-60 seconds=5, 40-50 seconds=4, 30-40seconds=3, 20-30 seconds=2, 5-10 seconds=1, and less than 5 seconds=0.

The percentage of catalepsy is determined according to the followingformula:% Catalepsy=arithmetic mean/6×100

III. In vivo Testing for Antiobesic Activity

a) Accute Treatment

Normally handled rats were habituated to a reversed cycle 12/12h, andthe tested compound as well as saline was acutely orally administered.After administration the cumulated food intake (g) was measured at 6 hand 24 h. Following that the difference in body weight between controland compound treated animals was measured. This is a variation of thetest according to Colombo et al. as described below.

b) Long-Term Treatment

The in-vivo testing for antiobesic activity of the inventive pyrazolinecompounds is carried out as described in the publication of G. Colomboet al., “Appetite Suppression and Weight Loss after the CannabinoidAntagonist SR 141716”; Life Sciences, 63 (8), 113-117, (1998). Therespective part of the description is hereby incorporated by referenceand forms part of the present disclosure.

IV. In vivo Testing for Antidepressant Activity

The in-vivo testing for antidepressant activity of the inventivepyrazoline compounds in the water despair test is carried out asdescribed in the publication of E. T. Tzavara et al., “The CB1 receptorantagonist SR141716A selectively increases monoaminergicneurotransmission in the medial prefrontal cortex: implications fortherapeutic actions”; Br. J. Pharmacol. 2003, 138(4):544:53. Therespective part of the description is hereby incorporated by referenceand forms part of the present disclosure.

V. In vitro Determination of Antagonism to CB1-Receptor

Membrane Preparation:

Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells stably expressing recombinant humancannabinoid 1 receptor (CB1) were cultured in nutrient mixture Ham's F12 supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum, 2 mML-glutamine, 50 U/ml penicillin, 50 U/ml streptomycin and 0.5 mg/mlgeneticin. In order to obtain cells, culture flasks were washed twicewith phosphate buffered saline and scraped. Then, cells were collectedby centrifugation (200×g, 10 min) and stored dry at −80° C. Cells werehomogenized in ice-cold 20 mM HEPES, 10 mM EDTA (pH 7.5) and centrifugedat 40,000×g for 15 min at 4° C. The membrane pellet was resuspended in20 mM HEPES, 0.1 mM EDTA (pH 7.5) and centrifuged for 15 min at 4° C.The final membrane pellet was resuspended in 20 mM HEPES, 0.1 mM EDTA(pH 7.5), and divided in aliquots and stored at −80° C. until use.

[³⁵S]GTPγS Binding Assay:

The reaction was performed in 96-well plates. Membranes (15 μgprotein/well) were incubated for 60 min at 30° C. in buffer (50 mMHEPES, 100 mM KCl, 5 mM MgCl₂, 1 mM EDTA, 0.1% wt/vol bovine serumalbumin, 5 μM GOP, saponin (10 μg/ml), 0.5 nM [³⁵S]GTPγS, pH 7.4) withcompound at a final concentration of 1 μM in either the absence orpresence of agonist WIN 55,212-2 between 3 nM and 3 μM. The incubationwas terminated by rapid filtration through Millipore Multiscreen glassfiber FB, and rinsed two-times with ice-cold assay buffer. Filter plateswere dried and 30 μl of scintillation liquid was added. Radioactivitywas determined using a Wallac Microbeta Trilux. Each experiment wasperformed at least in duplicate. A WIN 55,212-2 dose-response experimenteither alone or in the presence of Rimonabant (1 μM) was systematicallyperformed.

Calculations:

The average of basal [³⁵S]GTPγS binding was subtracted from all bindingdata. In order to compare the antagonism results from one screeningcampaign to another one, the difference between the maximal agonisteffect of WIN 55,212-2 alone, and the maximal antagonism effect due toWIN 55,212-2 plus Rimonabant (1 μM) was defined as 100%.

Further Methods:

Alcohol Intake

The following protocol may be used to evaluate the effects of alcoholintake in alcohol preferring (P) female rats (e.g. bred at IndianaUniversity) with an extensive drinking history. The following referenceprovides detailed a description of P rats: Lumeng, L. et al., “Differentsensitivities to ethanol in alcohol-preferring and-nonpreferring rats,”Pharmacol. Biochem Behav., 16, 125-130 (1982).

Female rats are given 2 hours of access to alcohol (10% v/v and water,2-bottle choice) daily at the onset of the dark cycle. The rats aremaintained on a reverse cycle to facilitate experimenter interactions.The animals are initially assigned to four groups equated for alcoholintakes: Group 1-vehicle; Group 2-positive control (e.g. 5.6 mg/kgAM251; Group3-low dose test compound; and Group 4-high dose of testcompound. Test compounds are generally mixed into a vehicle of 30%(w/v)—cyclodextrin in distilled water at a volume of 1-2 ml/kg. Vehicleinjections are given to all groups for the first two days of theexperiment. This is followed by 2 days of drug injections (to theappropriate groups) and a final day of vehicle injections. On the druginjection days, drugs are given sc 30 minutes prior to a 2-hour alcoholaccess period. Alcohol intake for all animals is measured during thetest period and a comparison is made between drug and vehicle-treatedanimals to determine effects of the compounds on alcohol drinkingbehavior.

Additional drinking studies can be done utilizing female C57BI/6 mice(Charles River). Several studies have shown that this strain of micewill readily consume alcohol with little to no manipulation required(Middaugh et al. “Ethanol Consumption by C57BU6 Mice: Influence ofGender and Procedural Variables” Alcohol, 17 (3),175-183, 1999, Le etal., “Alcohol Consumption by C57BL/6, BALA/c, and DBA/2 Mice in aLimited AccessParadigm” PharmacologyBiochemistry and Behavior, 47,375-378, 1994).

For example, upon arrival mice are individually housed and givenunlimited access to powdered rat chow, water and a 10% (w/v) alcoholsolution. After 2-3 weeks of unlimited access, water is restricted for20 hours and alcohol is restricted to only 2 hours access daily. This isdone in a manner that the access period was the last 2 hours of the darkpart of the light cycle.

Once drinking behavior is stabilized, testing can commence. Mice areconsidered stable when the average alcohol consumption for 3 days is 20%of the average for all 3 days. Day 1 of test consists of all micereceiving vehicle injection (sc or ip). Thirty to 120 minutes postinjection access is given to alcohol and water. Alcohol consumption forthat day is calculated (g/kg) and groups are assigned so that all groupshave equivocal alcohol intake. On day 2 and 3, mice are injected withvehicle or drug and the same protocol as the previous day is followed.Day 4 iss wash out and no injections are given. Data is analyzed usingrepeated measures ANOVA. Change in water or alcohol consumption iscompared back to vehicle for each day of the test. Positive resultswould be interpreted as a compound that was able to significantly reducealcohol consumption while having no effect on water

Oxygen Consumption Methods:

Whole body oxygen consumption is measured using an indirect calorimeter(Oxymax from Columbus Instruments, Columbus, Ohio) in male SpragueDawley rats (if another rat strain or female rats are used, it will bespecified). Rats (e.g. 300-380 g body weight) are placed in thecalorimeter chambers and the chambers are placed in activity monitors.These studies are done during the light cycle. Prior to the measurementof oxygen consumption, the rats are fed standard chow ad libitum. Duringthe measurement of oxygen consumption, food is not available. Basalpre-dose oxygen consumption and ambulatory activity are measured every10 minutes for 2.5 to 3 hours. At the end of the basal pre-dosingperiod, the chambers are opened and the animals are administered asingle dose of compound (the usual dose range is 0.001 to 10 mg/kg) byoral gavage (or other route of administration as specified, i.e., sc,ip, iv). Drugs are prepared in methylcellulose, water or other specifiedvehicle (examples include PEG400, 30% beta-cyclo dextran and propyleneglycol). Oxygen consumption and ambulatory activity are measured every10 minutes for an additional 1-6 hours post-dosing.

The Oxymax calorimeter software calculates the oxygen consumption(ml/kg/h) based on the flow rate of air through the chambers anddifference in oxygen content at inlet and output ports. The activitymonitors have 15 infrared light beams spaced one inch apart on eachaxis, ambulatory activity is recorded when two consecutive beams arebroken and the results are recorded as counts.

Resting oxygen consumption, during pre- and post-dosing, is calculatedby averaging the 10-min02 consumption values, excluding periods of highambulatory activity (ambulatory activity count>100) and excluding thefirst 5 values of the pre-dose period and the first value from thepost-dose period. Change in oxygen consumption is reported as percentand is calculated by dividing the post-dosing resting oxygen consumptionby the pre-dose oxygen consumption *100. Experiments will typically bedone with n=4-6 rats and results reported are mean±SEM.

Interpretation:

An increase in oxygen consumption of >10% is considered a positiveresult. Historically, vehicle-treated rats have no change in oxygenconsumption from pre-dose bassal.

Nicotine Dependence

An intravenous nicotine self-administration model or place preferencemodel may be used to assess the effects of a test compound on nicotinedependence (see, e.g., Vastola, et al. Physiol. Behav. 77:107-114, 2002;Brower, et al., Brain Res. 930:12-20, 2002).

Place Preference

Sprague-Dawley rats are used in this study (Vastola, et al., 2002).Animals are housed in a temperature-controlled, 12h/12h illuminationcycle with ad libitum access to food and water. Conditioning and testingare conducted in a chamber divided into two compartments with a doorseparating the two compartments. Behavior of the animals is recorded byvideo camera.

Animals are habituated to the injection procedure for several days. Theanimals are then placed into the test chamber and given free access toboth compartments. The initial preference for a particular compartmentis determined. For the conditioning trials, animals are injected withnicotine and restricted to the nonpreferred compartment, or the animalsare injected with saline and restricted to the preferred compartment. Ontest day, the door separating the compartments is removed, the animal isplaced in the center of the chamber and allowed to move freely betweencompartments. Time spent in each compartment is scored. Preferentialoccupancy of the nicotine compartment follows from the conditionedreinforcing effects of nicotine.

Self-Administration

Self-administration in animals is a predictor of a compound's abusepotential in humans. Modifications to this procedure may also be used toidentify compounds that prevent or block the reinforcing properties ofdrags that have abuse potential. A compound that extinguishes theself-administration of a drag may prevent that drag's abuse or itsdependence.

Sprague-Dawley rats are used in this study. Initially, animals arehoused in a temperature-controlled, 12h/12h illumination cycle with adlibitum access to food and water. The animals are then implanted withjugular catheters which exit through the animal's back, and each animalis placed in an individual operant chamber (Brower, et al., 2002). Thecatheters are connected to a computer-driven syringe pump which islocated outside of the chamber. The chamber contains two levers with agreen light located above each lever. The light is illuminated whennicotine is available.

In a self-administration test, animals are placed in the operantchambers and the levers are randomly designated as an active andinactive lever. Each response on the active lever produces an infusionof nicotine. Presses on the inactive lever have no effect, but are alsorecorded. Animals are then trained to self-administer nicotine over aset period of time by having drag access during each daily session.Illumination of the chamber house light signals the beginning of thesession and the availability of nicotine. When the session ends, thehouse light is turned off. Initially, a nicotine infusion occurs withevery press of the active lever. Once lever-pressing behavior has beenestablished, the number of presses to produce a nicotine infusion isincreased. After stable nicotine self-administration is obtained, theeffect of a test compound on the nicotine-reinforced behavior may beevaluated. Administration of this test compound prior to the session caneither potentiate, extinguish, or produce no change to theself-administrating behavior. Tests are conducted every two days, andthe order of the administration of the test compound doses iscontrolled.

Alzheimer/Dementia Experiments

Morris Water Maze Task

The Morris water maze is a behavioral in vivo test to measure spatialorientation learning and memory through a complex learning task. It ishighly suitable for testing compounds that enhance learning and memory.A circular water tank or pool (diameter 2 m, height 0.7 m) is filledwith water, and a 10 cm2 platform is placed 1-1.5 cm below the watersurface at a defined location within the pool. The escape platform isnot visible for an animal swimming in the water tank. For theexperiment, a rat or mouse is placed into the pool to swim freely.

The animals have the task to localize the submerged platform, and thetime and distance required for successful retrieval is measured.Multiple extra-maze cues are provided by the furniture in the room,including desks, computer equipment, a second water tank, the presenceof the experimenter, and by a radio on a shelf that is playing softly.

Before administration of the test compound, animals are usually trainedin the task 4 times a day for 5 days. Test compounds are administeredorally or intraperitoneally on the day of the experiment at a definedtime (e.g., 30 minutes before the first swim test). Control animals aredosed with the corresponding vehicle not containing test compound.Active compounds yield shorter times and distances to localize theplatform (i.e., the better the animal remembers the location of theplatform, the shorter the distance covered and the faster the platformis reached).

The test can also be carried out using transgenic or cognitivelyimpaired animals. Cognitive impairment is induced either by old age orexperimentally through brain lesions, such as bilateral lesions of theentorhinal cortex in rats. Such lesions can be induced by intracerebralinjections of the excitotoxin ibotenic acid.

Object Recognition Task

The object recognition task is used to assess the effects of compoundson the cognitive performance of rodents. A rat is placed in an openfield, in which two identical objects are located. The rats inspectsboth objects during the initial trial of the test. After a certainretention interval (e.g., 24 hours), a second trial is carried out.Here, one of the two objects used in the first trial (the ‘familiar’object) and a novel object are placed in the open field, and theinspection time at each of the objects is measured. Good retention isreflected by higher exploration times towards the novel compared withthe ‘familiar’ object.

Administration of the putative cognition enhancer prior to the firsttrial predominantly allows assessment of the effects on acquisition, andon the consolidation processes. Administration of the test compoundafter the first trial allows to assess the effects on consolidationprocesses, whereas administration before the second trial allows tomeasure effects on retrieval processes.

Passive Avoidance Task

The passive avoidance task assesses memory performance in rats and mice.The inhibitory avoidance uses an apparatus consisting of a box with twocompartments separated by a guillotine door that can be operated by theexperimenter. One compartment is illuminated with bright light, and theother compartment is dark. A threshold of 2 cm separates the twocompartments when the guillotine door is 15 raised. When the door isopen, the illumination in the dark compartment is about 2 lux. The lightintensity is about 500 lux at the center of the floor of the lightcompartment.

Two habituation sessions, one shock session, and a retention session aregiven, separated by inter-session intervals of 24 hours. During thehabituation sessions and the retention session, the rat is allowed toexplore the apparatus for 300 seconds.

The rat is placed in the light compartment, facing the wall opposite tothe guillotine door. After an accommodation period of 15 seconds, theguillotine door is opened so that all parts of the apparatus can bevisited freely. Rats normally avoid brightly lit areas and will enterthe dark compartment within a few seconds.

In the shock session, the guillotine door between the compartments islowered as soon as the rat has entered the dark compartment with allpaws, and a scrambled 1 mA footshock is administered for 2 seconds. Thenthe rat is removed from the apparatus and returned into its home cage.The procedure during the retention session is identical to that of thehabituation sessions.

The step-through latency, that is, the first latency of entering thedark compartment (in seconds) during the retention session is an indexof the memory performance of the animal: a better retention is assumedif the latency to enter the dark compartment is longer. A test compoundis given 30 minutes before the shock session, together with 1 mg/kgscopolamine. Scopolamine impairs the memory performance during theretention session 24 hours later. If the test compound increases theenter latency compared with the scopolamine-treated controls, it isconsidered to possess cognition enhancing activity. T-maze SpontaneousAlternation Task

The T-maze spontaneous alternation task (TeMCAT) assesses the spatialmemory performance in mice. The start arm and the two goal arms of theT-maze are provided with guillotine doors that can be operated manuallyby the experimenter. A mouse is put into the start arm at the beginningof training. In the first trial, either the left or right goal arm isblocked by lowering the respective guillotine door (forced trial).

After the mouse has been released from the start arm, it will explorethe maze, eventually entering the open goal arm, and return to the startposition, where it will be confined for 5 seconds, by lowering theguillotine door. Then, the animal can choose freely between the left andright goal arm (all guillotine-doors opened) during 14 additional trials(free choice trials). As soon as a mouse has entered one goal arm, theother arm is closed. The mouse eventually returns to the start arm andis free to visit whichever arm it wants after having been confined tothe start arm for 5 seconds.

After completion of 14 free choice trials in one session, the animal isremoved from the maze,

Out of the 14 trials the alternations in percent are calculated. Thispercentage and the total time needed to complete the first forced trialand the subsequent 14 free choice trials (in seconds) is analyzed. Inaddition, cognitive deficits can be induced by injection of scopolamine30 minutes before the start of the training session. A cognitionenhancer, administered before the training session, will at leastpartially, antagonize the scopolamine-induced reduction in thespontaneous alternation rate.

Depression Model

A forced swim or tail suspension model may be used to assess theefficacy of antidepressant compounds (see, e.g., Porsolt, et al., Nature266:730-732, 1977; Stem, et al., Psychopharmacology 85:367-370, 1985).

Forced Swim Test

Rats or mice are placed in a cylinder filled with water 23-25° C. fromwhich no escape is possible. Initially, animals struggle and try toescape, but eventually adopt a characteristic immobile posture and makeno further attempts to escape except for small movements needed theirhead above water. Animals are dosed with a compound and the activity(swimming or climbing) or immobility is measured by an observer. Theimmobility is considered by some to reflect a ‘behavioral despair’ inwhich animals cease to struggle to escape the aversive situation. A widevariety of clinically used antidepressants (TCAs, MAOIs, SSRIs,atypicals) decrease immobility in this test and has a good predictivevalidity in that it detects antidepressants with different mechanisms ofaction but its construct validity is weak. At least two distinct activebehavioral patterns are produced by pharmacologically selectiveantidepressant drugs. Serotonin-selective reuptake inhibitors increaseswimming behavior, whereas drugs acting primarily to increaseextracellular levels of norepinephrine or dopamine increase climbingbehavior. There are false positives (psychostimulants) but relativelyfew false negatives ([beta]-adrenergic agonists). The test is sensitiveto muscle-relaxant (benzodiazepines) and sedative (neuroleptics)effects, leading to enhanced immobility. False positives and falsenegatives can often be screened by measuring if the compound produceslocomotor stimulation or sedation.

Tail Suspension Test

When suspended by the tail, mice will initially struggle and try toescape and then alternate between active escape attempts andimmobililty. In this test, animals are dosed with a compound and theimmobility is measured by an observer for 6 min. Porsolt describes theimmobile behavior as ‘behavioral despair’ which animals cease tostruggle to escape the aversive situation. A large variety of clinicallyantidepressants (tricyclics, MAOIs, SSRIs, and atypicals) reduceimmobility in this model. The test has a good predictive validity forantidepressant activity and works for most antidepressant classesincluding but has some false positives (psychostimulants). The test issensitive to muscle-relaxant (benzodiazepines) and sedative(neuroleptics) effects, which lead to enhanced immobility. Falsepositives and false negatives can often be screened by measuring if thecompound produces locomotor stimulation or sedation. Strain differencesin the tail suspension test have been found in mice. The tail suspensiontest has some face validity but its construct validity is rather weak.

Schizophrenia Model

A prepulse inhibition model may be used to assess the efficacy ofantipsychotic compounds (see Swerdlow and Geyer, Schizophrenia Bulletin24; 285-301, 1998).

Prepulse Inhibition

Prepulse inhibition is the process whereby a relatively mild stimulus,the prepulse, suppresses the response to a strong, startle-elicitingstimulus when the prepulse precedes the startle stimulus by a briefduration (about 10 to 500 milliseconds). Prepulse inhibition is across-species phenomenon (ie, it is present in mammals ranging from miceto humans), yet it is relatively absent among schizophrenic patients.The deficit in PPI in schizophrenic patients is thought to reflect theloss of sensorimotor gating that may lead to sensory flooding andcognitive fragmentation. In this test, mice or rats are administeredcompounds and individually placed into a holder on a transducer platformto measure whole body startle. The holder is housed in a startle chamberwith background white noise. Following a brief habituation period,animals are given multiple trials of a weak auditory prepulse stimululs,followed by a strong auditory startle stimulus. Four types of trials aregiven: prepulse plus startle, prepulse alone, startle alone, and nostimulation. PPI is measured as the amount of inhibition of startlefollowing the prepulse and is expressed as the percentage of basicstartle. As a control, measurements are taken in the no stimulation andprepulse alone trials. PPI is considered a test with good predictive,face and construct validity for schizophrenia. Putative antipsychoticscan be tested alone to determine if they enhance PPI. Alternately,antipsychotics can be screened to determine if they block various agentsthat disrupt PPI (apomorphine, d-amphetamine, PCP, ketamine, DOI).Finally, mutant mice with or without drugs can be screened using the PPIprocedure.

Anxiety Model

An elevated plus maze model may be used to assess the efficacy ofanxiolytic compounds (see Pellow and File, Pharm. Biochem. Behav. 24,525-529, 1986).

Elevated Plus Maze

The elevated plus maze is widely used as an anxiety paradigm thatexamines the conflict between the drive to explore and the aversivenessof heights and open spaces of rats or mice. The maze is a cross made upof two open and two closed arms that is raised above the ground. Thecombination of light, the open arms, and the height is thought toproduce unconditioned fear or anxiety responses in mice or rats. Thetest apparatus is an open top maze constructed of opaque plastic withalternating open and enclosed arms. For rats, each arm is 45-55 cm longand 8-12 cm wide, with the sides of the enclosed arms 35-45 cm high, thejuncture approximately 10×10 cm, and the maze is elevated 45-55 cm abovethe floor. The mouse elevated plus maze consists of two closed arms(15×6×30 cm) and two open arms (1×6×30 cm) forming a cross, with aquadrangular center (6×6 cm). The maze is placed 50 cm above the floor.Testing is performed in a room free of noise and distraction. On testdays animals are administered drug or vehicle. If a pretreatment periodis necessary, the animals are returned to the home cage for the durationof the pretreatment time; otherwise, the animals are placed in a clearplastic holding chamber singly or with cage mates for 1-10 minutes priorto test time. Rats are then placed in the center of the maze alwaysoriented in the same direction, either consistently facing an open armor an enclosed arm. For 5-10 minutes, entries into each arm and the timespent in each arm are recorded by the observer(s) or by videotape or acomputer receiving input from a video camera mounted above the maze. Tocount as an entry, all four paws must be inside the arm. If necessary,additional measures of anxiety-related behaviors will be recorded, i.e.,time spent motionless, time spent in the center, time spent grooming,and the number of rears, stretching postures or feces produced.Following testing the animals are returned to the home cages. Whenanimals are placed in the center of the maze, they spend most of theirtime in the closed arms, avoiding the open arms. Anxiolytic drugs, suchas benzodiazepines, will increase the amount of time animals spend inthe open arms. The test is also sensitive to anxiogenic drugs, whichfends strong support for its predictive validity.

Erectile Dysfunction

Drugs affecting erectile function may be tested by measuring the effecton apomorphine-evoked increases in intracavernous pressure in the awakerat as described by Andersson, et al., (J. Urol. 161: 1707-17] 2, 1999).One end of a polyethylene tubing is implanted into the cavernosal spaceof the penis of male Sprague-Dawley rats. After recovery from thesurgery, intracavernous pressure is recorded using a pressure transducerconnected to a multichannel pen-recorder. Erections are induced byadministration of apomorphine (100-250 ug/kg s.c.) with or without testcompound, and the results are compared for the treated group and thenon-treated group.

Female Sexual Dysfunction

Systems to test compounds for the treatment of female sexual dysfunctioninclude in vitro and in situ models using vaginal or clitoral smoothmuscle preparations, histological evaluation, and vaginal blood flowassessments. In vivo studies of sexual responses focus on behavioralparadigms involving lordotic posturing and receptivity, as well asindices of motivation using a dual chamber pacing method (see, e.g.,Hale, et al., Int. J. Impot. Res. 15 Suppl 5: S75-79, 2003).
